Vehicles equipped with remote keyless entry (RKE) have an illuminated entry feature, which enables the instrument cluster module (ICM) to illuminate the interior lamps (and if equipped, the puddle lamps in the exterior mirrors) when an unlock signal is received from the vehicle security module through the UBP network, or when any of the doors are opened. The ICM controls the interior lamps illuminated entry feature by activating the battery saver relay. When active, the illuminated entry feature will be canceled when any of the following conditions are met:

Do you have a professional grade scan tool ? If not your best bet would be to take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop .

The generic electronic module (GEM) illuminates the interior lamps when an unlock signal is received from the remote anti-theft personality central security module. The illuminated entry feature will be canceled when any of the following conditions are met:

25 seconds have elapsed since the illuminated entry feature was activated and the interior lamp control is not activated (door ajar or courtesy lamp switch on).

The GEM receives a request from the central security module (remote transmitter lock button pressed) and the interior lamp control is not activated.

The ignition is in the RUN or START position and the interior lamp control is not activated.

The GEM will illuminate the interior lamps when any door is open or ajar. The interior lamps are; the dome lamp, the rear cargo lamp, the door courtesy lamp and the side rail lamps. The courtesy lamps will shut off when the doors are closed and the illuminated entry feature is not active or when the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h). The interior lamps will not be reactivated until the vehicle speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h) and a new door open warning lamp switch is received.
The GEM controls the interior lamps illuminated entry function by activating the interior lamp relay.

You have an electronic control module and relays involved in the operation of these lights also !

Laura, anytime a fuse is blowing that means that the power side of the circuit is shorting out against something that's metal, it also can be a part itself that's shorting out. This is a very time consuming issue to find and can wind up costing you an arm and a leg. Call me Al 314-374-5218. Shorts are very common but must be traced down on the circuit fuse that is blowing. Hope this helps and have an awesome day Laura.

Spray a lot of WD-40 or Blaster in the latches on the inside rear of each door. Most likely the drivers door is the issue because it sees the most use. There is a switch on the interior side of the latch that gets stuck. If that does not work, it is possible the GEM module has failed. I believe I have a couple of these if you need one, but usually the switch sticks open (on or depressed and it's normally closed) on the driver door.
Illuminated Entry
Illuminated entry is included as a function of the generic electronic module (GEM).
The illuminated entry system may be activated in the following three ways:

An interior lamp switch (13752) mounted on the front door latch (21812) closes, completing the circuit of the GEM. This switches the system ON.

This illumination will remain on for approximately 25 seconds and then automatically turn OFF.

During this 25 second period, the system can be deactivated by turning the ignition switch (11572) to RUN position, locking the doors with the keyless entry remote transmitter or keyless entry keypad or by battery saver time out.

The system will turn on every time the outside door handles are operated.

Opening the front doors (20124) or rear doors (24630) from the inside of the vehicle will not turn on the system.

If the outside door handle is held up so that the interior lamp switch is continuously closed, the system will operate as normal and turn off after 25 seconds.

If the door handle is still in the raised position, the system will remain off and it will be impossible to activate the system from the other front door handle until the raised door handle is returned to its normal position.

This is built into the logic circuitry of the system to prevent battery discharge should the outside door handle be propped up or become jammed in any way.

The system consists of:

generic electronic module (GEM).

interior lamp switch.

wiring harness.

The GEM is mounted directly to the fuse junction panel (14A067)
The interior lamp switch is retained to the front door latch by a keyed slot and is twisted into position.

its more than likely the twilight sentinal sensor which is in the dash and would cause this issue. it will be a little blue sensor about the size of a dime under the left hand or possible centre of the dash. happy holidays

The internal panel lights work off the left hand side of the side lights and are protected by the 10 amp fuse for this side. I had replaced both stop and tail lights with a heavy duty bulbs and because the left hand side powers the panel lights as well, obviously it was too much for the circuit. The right hand side was okay.

sounds likke u got grounding problem with ur wiring. if ur fuse pops wen u install a new fuse. this means ur grounding wire is cut or touching with metal. if doesnt pop,then it is ur power wire that is cut or touching the metal (grounding out)
